Comparison of Free EDA software

This category includes articles related to free software (i. e., software which can be freely copied, used, studied, modified, and redistributed) for electronic design automation. Such software is distributed under the terms of a free software license, which guarantees (among other things) that the software’s source code is made available to anyone using the software. The source code may be included as part of the distribution (in the case of a source distribution) or made available separately (in the case of a binary distribution), typically from a World-Wide Web site. Using an EDA tool distributed under a free-software license usually does not automatically subject the resulting design(s) to the terms of the same license.
